Editorial
The Taxation Laws (Second Amendment Bill, 2016)
overnment of India introduced The
Taxation Laws (Second Amendment Bill,
2016) on 27th November 2016. The proposal is
to tax persons who have not disclosed their
Income earlier or are now disclosing
unexplained income. This is in line with the
earlier announcement to come with heavy
hand on those who have not disclosed
income or wealth under Income Disclosure
Scheme (IDS) 2016.
G

The amendment proposal also gives another
chance to declare undisclosed income under
Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana, 2016
(PMGKY). The proposed amendment
contemplates a tax rate of 30%, Garib Kalyan
Cess of 33% of tax and penalty of 10% of
undisclosed income which works out to about
50%. The person who declares the income
under this scheme has to deposit 25% of the
income declared in Pradhan Mantri Garib
Kalyan Deposit Scheme, 2016 for 4 years which
bears no interest to the depositor. Unlike IDS,
the scheme does not have any deadline to
declare the unexplained income unless it is
scrapped one fine day.
By this amendment there is scope to get more
unaccounted income into the tax net.
Framing in the deposit scheme wherein the
money is kept for 4 years without any interest
to the depositor reduces inflation since money
circulation to that extent is stopped.
Government/Banks will also get debt funds
free of cost. The scheme will be dispute free in
terms of levying any type of penalty since
there is no discretionary power given to tax
authorities.
In case the above scheme is not adopted,The
Taxation Laws (Second Amendment Bill, 2016)
increases the tax rate to 60% on unexplained
income which was earlier at 30%. The Bill also
amends the penalty section 271AAB to enable
levy of penalty in cases where the undisclosed
income was found by the tax authorities in the
event of Search Operations. Also, it introduces
a new section 271AAC which levies a penalty
of 10% in cases of voluntary disclosure of
unexplained income.
The demonetized currency deposits are
allowed up to 30th December, 2016. Most of
the general public have raised doubts
whether demonetized deposits also attract
taxes at higher rates.
Framing in the deposit
scheme wherein the money is
kept for 4 years without any
interest to the depositor
reduces inflation since money
circulation to that extent is
stopped.
<<Hyderabad»NewDelhi»Mumbai»Bangalore»Jalgaon»Navi Mumbai >>
Raju and Prasad Chartered Accountants Raju and Prasad Chartered Accountants Page 5
The analysis of the various circumstances in view of the amendment is as follows-
The deposits during the year out of
demonetized currency will take the colour of
undisclosed income if the source for such
deposits are not clearly explained.
Many people have a wrong notion that
demonetized currency deposits up to 2.50
lakhs are tax free. This may be true to some
extent in case of persons not liable to file
income tax returns such as small traders,
housewives etc. but persons who have been
regularly filing their return of income have to
substantiate that these deposits are out of
their current income or that the deposits are
out of their cash balance and earlier
withdrawals failing which the deposits will be
considered as unexplained income and taxed
at higher rates accordingly.
This is a welcome and inevitable move taken
by the government and acts as a whip on non-
compliant assesses. This also increases the
responsibility on the revenue authorities to be
more vigilant and proactive in order to
recover the taxes from the defaulters/evaders.

Industry Review
Spices SectorSpicy History
hether it is saffron in Kashmir or pepper
in Kerala, India is known for a variety of
spices all over the country like its cultural
diversity. Spices are one of the most
remarkable ingredients of Indian cuisine.
Without them, Indian food would be as
ordinary as the others. Spices are also one of
the reasons why Indian food is becoming
popular to people across the globe.
Arthasastra during 3rd century B.C. mentioned
about various spices. Atharvanaveda and
Ayurveda talk about the medicinal uses of
spices. There are historical evidences that use
of spices was in existence in the age of Indus
W

<<Hyderabad»NewDelhi»Mumbai»Bangalore»Jalgaon»Navi Mumbai >>
Valley Civilisation. While Susruta-samhita and
Charaka-samhita talked about the medicinal
uses of spices, Vatsayana talked about the
aphrodisiac values of spices.
Indian history and trade is linked to spices.
History records, only Vasco da Gama’s
landing in 1498 at Kerala coast and his return
to Europe with a shipload of various spices, but
there were earlier evidences of Indian spice
trade with South Asian countries, Middle East
countries and China. Spice trade in South Asia
had competition between Portuguese, Dutch
and British. The trade forced to discover sea
routes and wars were fought ruthlessly for
occupying territories for spices.
In 15th century Europeans started the spice
trade and by 16th century British made India
as their trade capital in Asia through East India
Company replacing Dutch monopoly of spice
trade in India. British landed in India for spices
and ended up as rulers.
Spices Produced in India
Spices are in the form of fruits, flowers, leaves,
bark, seeds, roots and bulbs. There are number
of spices available but some are regularly
used in food and some are used in medicinal
preparations and aromatic preparations.

Pepper, “the king of spices” is commonly used
for flavoring food stuff which is grown in the
Western Ghats usually in the hilly areas and
requires an average rainfall of 200-300 cm.
Cardamom, “the queen of aromatic
spices”are mainly grown in areas where the
climatic conditions are humid, the average
rainfall required for this spice ranges from 150-
300 cm.
Some of the spices have insect repellant
properties, some are used in antimicrobial
activities, alcoholic beverages and also as
natural colouring agents. Many condiments
and oils are extracted out of these spices.
Nearly three-fourths of spices listed in ISO are
produced in India. India is the largest
producer, consumer and exporter of spices. In
recent times organized marketing with brand
names is taking place in spices, spice
powders, spice oil, spice extracts and
oleoresins, etc. and essential oils.
Saffron traditionally known as “Zafran” is one
of the world’s highest valued spice. Saffron
stigmas are graded with colour, bitterness and
aroma. The darker the colour the better it is. It
has been popularized during recent times
mainly due to spread of Kashmiri population to
major cities and also due to its rich source of
minerals such as calcium and iron. Pakistan is
the main competitor for Saffron trade.
Prospects
Most of the states in India produce spices, the
total area under cultivation is 3.12 million
hectares during 2013-14 which has increased
from 1.93 million hectares during 1990-91. The
Page 10 Raju and Prasad Chartered Accountants
<<Hyderabad»NewDelhi»Mumbai»Bangalore»Jalgaon»Navi Mumbai >>
average growth in production increased from
1.98 million metric tonnes during 1990-91 to
5.94 million metric tonnes during 2013-14 which
is around 9% per annum as per statistics of
Spice Board of India.

India accounts for nearly 48 percent of volume
and 43 percent of value in global spice trade.
During 2015-16 a total of 8.34 lakh tonnes of
spices and spice products have been
exported amounting to USD 2842.83 million
which shows an increase while compared to
that of 1990-91 which was USD 130.40 million as
per statistics of FAO and Spice Board of India.
Page 12 Raju and Prasad Chartered Accountants
<<Hyderabad»NewDelhi»Mumbai»Bangalore»Jalgaon»Navi Mumbai >>
The leading importers of spices from India are
USA, China, Vietnam, UAE, Indonesia,
Malaysia and UK. While Chilli is the most
exported spice in terms of quantity which is
3.47 lakh tonnes and worth USD 605 million
during 2015-16 as per the statistics of Spice
Board of India, other spices, oils and oleoresins
are also in much demand among the exports.
Apart from being the largest exporter of spices
on the globe, India consumes approximately
90% of its spice production each year. The
spices in India are channelized to three broad
clients namely industrial sector, retail sector
and catering sector.
The spices market in India is growing in recent
years on account of increase in purchasing
power and improvement in living standards.
Rising demand for spices is also due to value
added products like spice mixes. The surge in
growth is mainly originated from growth in
chilly and garlic as a segment of spice market.
The growth in this segment has been largely
led by the domestic factors and increase in
global demand.
Organic Spices
Many people today, all over the world, show
interest in organic food since it is free from
chemical contaminants, the demand for
these products is steadily increasing. Spice
Board of India has prepared a document on
production of organic spices during 1998. It
features the organic concepts, principles,
basic standards, production guidelines,
documentation, inspection and certification.
Export of organic spices from India is gaining
ground. The country has recorded exports of
around 2636.87 MT tonnes of organic spices
during 2015-16, valued at USD 3 million as per
Page 13 Raju and Prasad Chartered Accountants
<<Hyderabad»NewDelhi»Mumbai»Bangalore»Jalgaon»Navi Mumbai >>
the statistics of Agricultural and Processed
Food Products Export Development Authority
(APEDA).
Government Initiatives
To develop and regulate the sector, Spice
Board of India was formed during 1986,
National Research Center for Spices (NRCS)
which is presently
know as Indian
Institute of Spices
Research was also
established in the
same year.
International Pepper
Exchange was
established in 1997
besides Indian
Cardamom Research
Institute (ICRI) was
established in 1978.
Saffron Production and Export Development
Agency (SPEDA) was established in 2015.
Spice Board has specific programmes for
development, it has established crop scientific
Spices Parks in the major production and
market centers in Kerala, Rajasthan, Andhra
Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Tamilnadu to
empower the farming community by
providing common infrastructure and
processing facilities which will in turn boost the
sector.
Codex Committee on Spices and Culinary
Herbs (CCSCH) was formed during 2014-15.
During 2015-16 Spice Board of India took an
initiative in developing the digital platform
named “e-Spice Bazaar” which caters to the
needs of spice farmers and
exporters.
Spice Producers Society
(SPS) was formed by the
Spice Board which will
function as bridge
between Board and the
growers. A special
programme for the North
Eastern States has been
setup which provides
techniques for rain harvesting and installation
of irrigation equipments.
Page 14 Raju and Prasad Chartered Accountants
<<Hyderabad»NewDelhi»Mumbai»Bangalore»Jalgaon»Navi Mumbai >>
Integrated projects by various state
departments were implemented under
Mission for Integrated Development of
Horticulture (MIDH) and Rashtriya Krishi Vikas
Yojana (RKVY) for providing training facilities to
the farmers for improving the quality of their
yield.
Problems and Challenges
Though the industry has been growing and has
a huge market demand across the globe it
faces certain challenges which are as follows:
1. Strong competition for Indian Spice
products due to stringent food safety
norms of various importing countries.
2. The constant use of pesticides, insecticides
and toxin remains is impacting the quality
of spices like any other agro produce.
3. Value added products need more
emphasis on processing technologies.
4. Like any other agricultural crop, spices also
face the pests, epidemics and vagaries of
weather.
5. Existence of strong competitors in the
global market for certain products like
cinnamon, cumin, nutmeg, clove,
cardamom, black pepper, etc.
6. Modern processing technologies,
cultivation and post-harvest techniques
need attention for a better marketing of
the product.
Page 15 Raju and Prasad Chartered Accountants
<<Hyderabad»NewDelhi»Mumbai»Bangalore»Jalgaon»Navi Mumbai >>
7. Dominance of unorganized sector which
sell in open markets and unbranded
products without quality evaluation.
8. Small land holdings hamper the farmers
from implementing good cultivation
practices, non-coverage of crop insurance
and inability for marketing.
The Government together with the private
sector involvement must overcome these
challenges to make the spices sector one of
the largest in the world.
